Snickers Cake

Let us take a minute to give thanks for those two words...Snickers...cake...does it really get any better than that?? I, of course, had to test it out before giving it to my whole family.  It barely (and by barely, I mean, I was going to hide it and eat it all myself) passed.  This is beyond delicious. It has Joe's 2 requirements for a cake.  No frosting.  Caramel.  These two powers combined equals perfect!  Sorry there is no picture, it was devoured before I had a chance. It was that good! Enjoy!

Snickers Cake
Recipe by: http://www.sixsistersstuff.com
1 German Chocolate Cake Mix
Ingredients called for on cake mix(oil, eggs, water)
1 (14 oz) bag of Kraft Caramels (or any other caramels you like)
1/4 cup milk
1/3 cup butter (which is about 3/4 of a cube)
1-2 cups chocolate chips (however many you like)
1 cup chopped pecans
Mix together cake mix as directed on the box. Pour half of the batter into a greased 9x13 baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
While it bakes, unwrap all the caramels (don't have your husband help- he will eat half of them. I am totally speaking from experience). Put the caramels, milk, and butter in a sauce pan and melt over low heat, stirring constantly until caramel is melted and smooth.
Pour the caramel on the cake as soon as it is finished baking. Sprinkle the chocolate chips and pecans on top of the caramel. Spread the remaining half of the prepared cake mix batter on top. Bake for 20 more minutes at 350 degrees.
